Abstract
An ear-worn hearing device including an acoustic transducer and a physiological sensor located between an acoustic sealing flange and an inner end portion of the hearing device is disclosed. The flange can be integrated with the hearing device or be an integral part of a removable ear dome. The flange is configured to form at least a partial seal with the user's ear. The flange can also prevent light from entering into the user's ear canal. A removable ear dome can be located on the hearing device by a portion of the physiological sensor protruding from the housing.
